[/b] Smash Brothers unique battle system was a shock to gamers all over the world when it first arrived, with a percentage meter instead of a health bar, gamers were confused, the higher the number on your percentage bar the further you will go flying if your hit, innovative or not you decide, personally I think it’s great, and just another reason why Smash Brothers is such a great fighting game, and yes, it returns in the upcoming version. The game features many new toys to play with, and "friends" to call on to help you beat the opposition, such as a nintendog to run up the screen and block the view of the action. There are numerous different modes of play Single player with its new "Adventure" mode called "The Subspace Emissary". The adventure mode is based around character development and is apparently more "fleshed out" then the single player mode in previous titles.

It was a very good move by Nintendo to take this one online, as if it wasn't I think the fans would be kicking and screaming as to why such a great game isn't online (a la "Wii Sports"), Sakurai had this to say of the online capability: [i] "My plan is to include Wi-Fi connection compatibility and online functionality.
